How To Apply

Answer a few questions to learn about the application process.

The wizard is not an online application. The wizard will prepare you to apply for a U.S. passport, whether it’s your first time applying, you need to renew, or you want to get a passport for your child. Please note that completing the wizard does not entitle you to a U.S. passport, and the U.S. embassy, consulate, or office providing consular services may require you to provide additional forms or supporting documents before issuing your passport.

Is the person applying for a passport either a U.S. citizen or U.S. national?

Only U.S. citizens and nationals are eligible for U.S. passports.
